The ultimate guide for the best iced coffee spots in Dubai for your morning caffeine run
Life by Team Emirates Woman 27 seconds ago 'This is a jumbo-coffee morning. I need coffee in an IV.' — Lorelai Gilmore This quote resonates with people who work 9-5 on most mornings. How else is one supposed to get through the eight hours of a work day? With a morning shot of caffeine, that's how. With the UAE weather making it almost impossible to enjoy a hot cappucino or americano in the AM, it's iced-coffee-to-the-rescue season. Plus, it almost feels like a treat you're buying for yourself as a reward for adulting in this prickly heat. When it comes to iced coffees, not every place can make the cut. It has to be the perfect decoction of the espresso shot, milk of choice, ice and flavouring — no element can overpower the other. Coffee lovers will agree. After trying and testing a couple of popular joints in Dubai, we've curated a list of the best iced coffee spots that you can pit stop at before head to work. Some elements we looked at while curating this list was checking the quality of the espresso used, the ice to coffee ratio, the value for price, and of course, how cute does the delivery cup look.

Editor's Picks: 25 of the best picks from Eid al Fitr 2025 sale
Fashion by Team Emirates Woman 40 seconds ago With payday weekend and Eid Al Fitr ahead, expect to be navigating through numerous sales whether you're shopping online or offline. The thrill of luxury sale shopping isn't just about scoring a discount—it's about making the right investment. While the options for Eid Al Fitr sale are endless and can be overwhelming, it's best to arm yourself with a few shopping principles. If you're looking to secure an investment piece, choose a timeless design that will never go out of style as it will last you years of wear. Instead of chasing trends, it will hold a lasting appeal and have future heirloom potential. This can be in the form of accessories such as bags – or clothing, that you can add to your capsule wardrobe. Another expert tip is not to go for the obvious 'it' pieces. Look to emerging designers and cult labels that offer elevated essentials and exude quiet luxury such as The Frankie Shop, Toteme, to name a few. The best sale shopping strategy? Mixing high and low buys. Look to discounted online retailers for further discount reductions or high street retailers to score a piece that can instantly refresh your outfits without a hefty price. Whether you're eyeing timeless classics, runway standouts, or under-the-radar designer gems, these are the pieces worth adding to your cart before they disappear. Tap the gallery above and scroll through the gallery for 25 editor-approved Eid al Fitr sale buys, hand selected by the Emirates Woman team: – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Supplied
